Abstract:
Various techniques are provided to generate a plurality of reference clock signals using a single reference clock signal generator. In one example, a clock signal generation system includes a reference clock signal generator adapted to provide a reference clock signal. The system also includes a plurality of dividers adapted to divide the reference clock signal using different ratios to provide a plurality of communication port clock signals. The system also includes a plurality of different communication ports adapted to receive the communication port clock signals and adapted to operate in accordance with different communication protocols using the communication port clock signals.
